Can't take it Lyrics

Can't take it Song Lyrics

(Spoken)
Some people do some hurtful things
Parents, strangers, teachers, friends
This is a story about a girl who this happened to

It’s all my fault
I shouldn’t have been so naughty
Then my mama wouldn’t have hit me
And my dada wouldn’t have left me
I shouldn’t have been so selfish

Chorus:
They hit me once
And they hit me twice
I was stuck with them
No way out
They hit me hard
I cried at night
I didn’t want to wake up in
The morning light

I didn’t want
To go on for any longer
I would have gladly given it up
There would be no more pain inside me
I wouldn’t be there at all

Chorus:
They hit me once
And they hit me twice
I was stuck with them
No way out
They hit me hard
I cried at night
I didn’t want to wake up in
The morning light

I nearly did
I ended up in hospital
Social services found out about
How my mama and dada hit me
I was so scared ‘bout what they’d say

Chorus:
They hit me once
And they hit me twice
I was stuck with them
No way out
They hit me hard
I cried at night
I didn’t want to wake up in
The morning light

It’s sorted now
I’m in foster care with a new life
Mama and dada have had some help
They should never be hurtful again
But I don’t want to take that risk…
